Abstract

The article investigates the use of the IRI index to assess the condition of the pavement of streets of different types within a settlement: main city and district roads, residential and industrial. The possibility of applying a differential system for assessing the evenness of the road surface is considered, which makes it possible to more accurately determine its condition in five gradations – from excellent to critical. Based on the results, a map of the district was built, which clearly demonstrates the distribution of the technical condition of its street and road network. This allowed us to identify problem areas, which will make it easier to optimize the planning of repair work and ensure efficient use of resources. The research provides a more comprehensive understanding of the factors contributing to pavement deterioration. Furthermore, the use of modern technologies, such as GIS systems and remote sensing data, facilitated the development of a dynamic model for monitoring road conditions in real-time.
